untilFinals week continues on MasterChef: The Professionals, withjust three of the country's most exciting chefs still in with ashot at the title. Their culinary minds will be blown as theycook for one of the world's most exciting talents in a remotesetting that will take their breath away.The contestants arewhisked away to the town of Baltimore, in County Cork,Ireland, home to the two Michelin-starred Turkish restaurant,Dede. The restaurant is run by trailblazing chef Ahmet Dede,who delivers the finest Turkish and Irish seasonal produce onplates that celebrate both cultures. Many of the plates comefrom Ahmet's cherished memories growing up and are very closeto his heart. Cuisine this unique will be a first for the finalthree, who will start their journey by catering a lunch forsome specially invited guests. Before they can do this, thefinalists need to understand Ahmet's ethos.Chef Ahmet himselfwill cook a few of his favourite dishes in an outdoor kitchen.These include an extraordinary kebab dish and a recipe thatcombines the finest Irish beef with flavours from the OttomanEmpire. The level of detail here is off the scale, and theplates require a delicate touch like no other.Armed withinspiration, the finalists will then travel to Inish Beg, aprivate island estate with over 97 acres of spectacularwoodland and gardens. Outdoor kitchens have been set up in thestunning walled garden, from which the finalists will need toprepare lunch for Ahmet's family and friends. Their own lunchmenu will include plates of food inspired by the earliermasterclass that are based on their passions and memories. Aselection of the finest local ingredients is available, alongwith a larder packed with some of Ahmet's Turkish favourites.Cooking with live flames, at the mercy of the Irish weather,will no doubt add extra pressure to an already stressfulsituation.The finalists will need to find their feet quickly,as they will be thrown in at the deep end, joining Ahmet'selite brigade of chefs for a lunchtime service. They will eachbe responsible for two dishes from Dede's tasting menu, whichcan sometimes take the most experienced chef months to master.This includes a dessert inspired by his daughter - so nobodywill want to let him down.Today's diners include Marcus,Monica and Gregg, who will expect their chosen finalists todeliver to the two Michelin standard. Every mouthful matters atthis stage, as the hunt for this year's champion is almost atan end.
